hyperlinking and signatures

[Guest]

I upgraded to ms outlook 2003 and have these 2 questions.

1. I used to highlight the text, go to insert, choose hyperlink and I could
cut and paste the address onto the form. I cannot paste into this form.
Please tell me how to hyperlink to the web page I am currently working on.

2. I used to move my curser where I wanted the signature to appear, went to
insert and choose signature. I tried auto text but it just added my "name"
not my customized signature. I also have other signatures that I would like
to choose from.

Thank you in advance for your precious time.

1) What form? What happens when you paste?

2) WordMail does not include an Insert | Signature command like the regular
Outlook editor. If you want to be able to insert a signature into a WordMail
message manually, you can create an AutoText entry for each signature. You
can then insert them with the Insert | AutoText command.

Or, create multiple signatures the normal way (Tools | Options | Mail
Format) and make one the default. If you want to use a different signature
for the current message, right-click the signature that Outlook inserted
automatically. From the pop-up menu, select either the name of the signature
you want to use or E-mail Signature to create a new one. I personally prefer
this technique. This is also the technique you need to use if you want
Outlook 2003 to automatically change your signature when you switch accounts
on an unsent message.

Thanks. I understand now. You should be able to use Ctrl+V to paste in the
hyperlink text. Alternatively, paste the link text into the body of your
message, press Space so that it turns into a hyperlink, then right-click the
link and choose Edit Hyperlink from the context menu.

That worked. That should be easier than that or at least be addressed
somewhere on that form. Thank you so much!!
